teething nursling???

DS is pulling off frequently and gnawing on his hands and nursing and crying. Hes woke up super fussy in the middle of the night unsettled for about an hr or two where he usually isn't. teething or growth spurt?

It could be both. Treat for teething since if its a growth spurt there isn't anything you can do to help. Frozen washcloths, things to gnaw on. That sort of thing. If it helps it's teething, if not it could still be teething or a growth spurt.

I know. I didn't say the baby was too young for teething. Just pointed out that since the baby is only 3 months that's young to automatically jump to that.
It's most likely a growth spurt and the hands in the mouth is self soothing.

Those are also possibilities. But there's no such thing as too young for teething. They can be teething straight out of the womb.

Quoting MIA0223:

That young it's most likely a growth spurt or maybe a tummy ache or gas :(
